Craxy Fingers,

You're obviously very fond of shapetweens and tracebitmap..but you should really try to use a different effect to speed up the load time..if you convert the traced bitmap to a symbol you can change the instance properties(alpha/color) and motion tween the keys to produce a fade or a dissolve that would load way faster the shapetweening a traced bitmap...

you could use shape hints but that ain't working with those pictures.

but also, once you've converted your sketches or photo's to a vector image you should really take a good look at it and minimize the shapes keeping in mind that the fewer "shapes" the less load on flash to reproduce the symbol.

I only write all this because you seem to be trying really hard and I figured I'd help you make things better...

keep up the good work,

Ray
